Love Spirals Downward (L.S.D. for inadequate) formed in Los Angeles in 1991 when guitarist, keyboardist, and composer Ryan Lum asked Suzanne Perry to record vocals o'er some music he had written. The positive results lED to a recorded demonstration, and by late 1992, the duet released their showtime album, Idylls, on the ethereal Projekt pronounce. Their debut maintained a strong Cocteau Twins vibration, but they differed from that grouping by virtue of Perry's discrete vocal trend and a dreamier, folksier sound that manifested itself on subsequent releases, each of which suffer shown L.S.D. more strongly defining their personal fashion, lento only gradually denudation off the processing and becoming more acoustically based. In fact, their sporadic North American shows give birth in the main featured Lum on acoustic guitar and Perry tattle. E'er shows them experimenting with modern electronica, also evidenced by an ethereal drum'n'bass tune performed at the 1997 Projekt Festival in Chicago. Magnetic field followed in 1998. Throughout their career, the duo get kept up a strong following among the Goth specify, fifty-fifty though their audiences are far more varied than that. Ethereal tribe is the topper fashion to line them, for they accommodate neither the image nor the coloured climate of the Gothic writing style, although their occasional melancholiac edge does explain the association. By the new millennium, Lum started the Lovespirals project with singer/songwriter Anji Bee on vocals. Lovespirals issued Windblown Kiss in summer 2002.
